Septuagint (Brenton Greek text, with Apocrypha)
1Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways.
1Ὠδὴ τῶν ἀναβαθμῶν. Πλεονάκις ἐπολέμησάν με ἐκ νεότητός μου, εἰπάτω δὴ Ἰσραήλ·
2For you will eat the labor of your hands. You will be happy, and it will be well with you.
2Πλεονάκις ἐπολέμησάν με ἐκ νεότητός μου, καὶ γὰρ οὐκ ἠδυνήθησάν μοι.
3Your wife will be as a fruitful vine in the innermost parts of your house, your children like olive shoots around your table.
3Ἐπὶ τὸν νῶτόν μου ἐτέκταινον οἱ ἁμαρτωλοὶ, ἐμάκρυναν τὴν ἀνομίαν αὐτῶν.
4Behold, this is how the man who fears the LORD is blessed.
4Κύριος δίκαιος συνέκοψεν αὐχένας ἁμαρτωλῶν.
5May the LORD bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.
5Αἰσχυνθήτωσαν καὶ ἀποστραφήτωσαν εἰς τὰ ὀπίσω πάντες οἱ μισοῦντες Σιών.
6Yes, may you see your children’s children. Peace be upon Israel.
6Γενηθήτωσαν ὡσεὶ χόρτος δωμάτων, ὃς πρὸ τοῦ ἐκσπασθῆναι ἐξηράνθη·
